ADVICE

Story-Based Learning

  • Learn languages through story-based input, focusing on compelling listening and reading materials.
  • Let speaking emerge naturally as a consequence of understanding, rather than rote memorization.
INSIGHT

Subtle Progress

  • Progress in story-based learning is subtle and noticeable over weeks, not days or hours.
  • This contrasts with traditional methods that offer instant gratification but don't reliably translate to fluency.
ADVICE

Learning Routine

  • Choose compelling materials slightly above your level, with corresponding audio.
  • Repeatedly read and listen, letting understanding fill in gaps, and recycle materials for deeper absorption.
